The "96%" (wherever that number came from....) "live in fear" because the media stirs up fear and panic then everyone feeds off it. If you are susceptible to pneumonia than you should take precautions. If you have pre-existing conditions that would be aggravated by the flu you should take precautions.
Other than that, if you contract the virus, you have "flu like" symptoms IF you have anything at all.
Further, even with a vaccine, 61,000 died from the flu in the US during the 2017-2018.
Here is a new flu-like virus and we are at 149K. Not great numbers, but definitely not the millions they said it would be.
Also, everyone will eventually get this. No matter how careful you are you will get it. It's similar to the flu in transmission and symptoms.

I'm not against wearing a mask. Even with my asthma it doesn't bother me. I'm also not against people not being up my ass in the grocery store and I think the dividers between customers and cashiers are long overdue.
All of these precautions spared us of the "millions" you're erroneously citing. We put a lot of work in here in the northeast, reducing the spread amongst ourselves
and to you guys as well, and learning and publishing the best supportive care protocols for hospitals to address this.
Be
wise and learn from us. Please don't **** it up because you don't care.
